This BDF Master Class/Info Session is for students curious about Bates Dance Festival’s Professional Training Program (PTP), which will host in person programming from July 9-29. Join Alexandra James, BDF’s Director of Training Programs to dance and learn about the Festival’s training and performance opportunities for the 2023 season! Class will culminate with conversation about the application process, scholarship opportunities, and a discussion about BDF’s model for training across multiple disciplines, based around rigor, collaboration and deep commitment to equity.

Directions: Our back entrance is accessible by way of North McDonough Street, at the intersection of Trinity Avenue and the Decatur Square. Look for the entrance between Waffle House and DeWoskin Law Firm. If you get turned around, please call our office at (404) 373-4154.

Parking: Due to the very small nature of our parking lot, Core’s lot is limited to Core staff. Please find on-street parking or take MARTA when attending class. (Free on-street parking is available on Electric Ave.) MARTA’s Decatur Station will plop you down right next to us in the Decatur Square.
